Where's the why?

from You give me the blues by Rowland Jones

/

lyrics

Tired of waking up on my own,
I have a house, but I don't have a home.
So lonely living life by yourself.
Don't like feeling left up on the shelf
Where's the why? Where's the you?

It doesn't worry me all of the time,
Just appears with no reason or rhyme
Sometimes I see somebody smile
I'd like to be there, every once in a while
Where's the why? Where's the you?

I'm getting older, I'm getting tired
Drunk, too often . . . getting wired
Don't know, how long I can last.
Life is going slower and time is moving fast.
Where's the why? Where's the you?

You might be tall, and slender with long blonde hair.
You might be 'reet petite' I don't really care.
As long as your mind works and your heart is true,
Don't mind if your eyes are green, brown or blue.
Where's the why? Where's the you?
